gsmsms adapter for ioBroker

Send and recieve SMS with GSM-hardware.

Hardware

Any GSM-Hardware (shield, surfstick i.e) connected to a serial port of your ioBroker - device. GSM-modules/sticks need a lot of power. Please ensure a sufficient power supply.

Some devices have to be set to the right mode for serial communication (see 'usb_modeswitch').

Settings

Port & connection setting

Path to Serial Port - required.

e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/serial/by-id/xxxxxxxxxxx (by-id is more stable, ttyUSBx can change with a reboot)

Some devices expose multiple USB port, so it can be that you need to try it out. Most likely the "first" on will work, but will maybe not deliver "incoming message notifications", then you can try the other and send in a sms and see if some seconds later it is received (on a Huawai this is the third port as example).

Your SIM PIN

If your SIM card is protected by a PIN provide the PIN and it will be used to unlock the SIM card during initialization (empty, means "no PIN existing on the SIM card").

GSM settings

Not to run out of SIM-Memory, all SMS are deleted from SIM after delivery/reading. Use e.g. the 'history' - adapter to store your messages or any other convenient solution.

Name Type Default Description
Incoming SMS indication boolean true Enables the modem to notify that a new SMS message has been received.
Enable concatenation boolean true Receive concatenated messages as one.
Custom Iinit command string If your device needs a custom initialization command it can be provided and will be used after PIN check. i.e. some devices need 'AT+CPMS="SM","SM","SM"' to get the right storage set. The command is expected to return 'OK' (empty, means "no custom command for init"). pls refer your GSM-device specs.
CNMI when modem open/closed string '2,1,0,2,0' / '2,0,2,2,1' Defines if messages are saved on SIM or delivered instantly. pls refer your GSM-device specs.

SerialPort settings

Please refer to your GMS-device specs (Google will help in most cases)

Name Type Default Description
baudRate number 19200 The port's Baud rate.
dataBits number 8 Must be one of: 8, 7, 6, or 5.
stopBits number 1 Must be one of: 1 or 2.
parity string "none" Must be one of: 'none', 'even', 'mark', 'odd', 'space'.
rtscts boolean false flow control setting
xon boolean false flow control setting
xoff boolean false flow control setting
xany boolean false flow control settings

Other settings and recommendations

To be specified as adapter - objects (admin.x)

  • your name (default is ownNumber), maximum length is 16 chars.
  • your phone Number.
  • SMS operating Mode (PDU or SMS, PDU is default and recommended).

All inputs have to be made with ack=false!

Inbox/Outbox - History

By activating the History-adapter for the inbox.messageRaw - object and the sendSMS.messageRaw - object you get a complete In- and Outbox of your SMS traffic.

Functionalities

Receive SMS

Incoming SMS are written to the inbox.* - objects. inbox.messageRaw can be used as trigger for further operations (e.g. forward incoming sms by e-mail adapter).

Send SMS

To send a sms fill in sendSMS.recipient, sendSMS.message and optionally sendSMS.alert and push the sendSMS.send - button. Or set the sendSMS.messageRaw - Object with a string in the following form and ack=false: {"recipient": "Number", "message":"Yourtext", "alert":"false"}.

This adapter also provides a comm-block for blockly and sendTo functionalities for other scripts (sendTo("gsmsms.InstanceNo", "send", {text: 'yourText',recipient: 'phonenumber', alert: 'false/true'});).

Execute AT+ commands

! Pls be sure to know what you do when setting AT+ commands, it's your SIM-card / device.

AT+commands are sent be setting admin.atCommandSLR in the format AT+XXXXy. Send any command you like, but be aware that you will see only the last line of the response.

Serialport-gsm

This adapter is based on the SerialPort-GSM plugin for communicating with GSM modems, primarily for SMS.
